Note: Trust me, this is from experience.
Now as some of you know, usually mascara can only be used for 4-6 months as it is a breeding ground for bacteria. Since mascaras have a liquid consistency and you use it on your eyes then put it back in the tube, certain kinds of bacteria may be thriving in there. And if you find it's kinda smelling a little funky, you better toss it. It's not worth the risk.
But if you find that you still have plenty of mascara , hasn't hit the mark of 6 months and isn't smelling like feet but is getting a little clumpy here's what to do to extend it for a few more uses before you buy a new tube.
1. Liquid Liner
Brush or Felt-tip, doesn't matter.
What matters is how well you know how to use them and what kind of look you're going for.
Hard pencils (Not too hard though, we don't want them peepers to get wrinkles) and fast-drying liquid liners with firm brush tips, for me work best.
2. Mirror
Please, for your sake and mine, use a mirror.You can't "guess" when it comes to make-up and you don't want to end up like Lindsay here.
Did she apply make-up in the dark? |
As for me, I mostly do winged liners, since I have small eyes.
I also do just the normal un-winged brown liner when I want just a little bit of emphasis on the eyes.
What You Need:
Creamy Black Eyeliner
Shimmery eyeshadow (They used gold for this vid)
And...that's it!
Brushes are optional, because it really is this easy, you can basically apply it with using your fingers.
Wash your hands first okay?
